Overview
Therapeutic endoscopy is used to treat bleeding ulcer and recurrent ulcer.The second look endoscopy is done 24 hours after endoscopic therapy to check for bleeding. If there is bleeding after second look endoscopy, the next step is surgery or interventional radiology with transcatheter arterial embolization.
Endoscopic therapy
Indications for endoscopic therapy
- Patients with active spurting or oozing bleeding or a non-bleeding visible vessel
- Patients with an adherent clot resistant to vigorous irrigation[1]
Endoscopic therapy can be done by following methods:
- Injection therapy:
- Thermal coagulation:
- Contact type: Heater probe, monopolar and bipolar electrocoagulation
- Noncontact types : Laser treatment, argon plasma coagulation [APC][7]
- Mechanical devices: Endoclips and band ligation are used commonly[8][9]
- Combined therapy: Injection of diluted epinephrine followed by thermal coagulation[7]
- Hemospray: Nanopowder with clotting abilities is sprayed onto the bleeding site[10]

Second look endoscopy
- Second look endoscopy is done after 24 hours of endoscopic therapy
- This detect and treat ulcers that are at risk of recurrent bleeding
- This further reduces the episodes of recurrent bleeding
- Decrease the need of surgery to treat recurrent bleeding[12][13]
- If bleeding occurs after a second endoscopic therapeutic session, surgery or interventional radiology with transcatheter arterial embolization is done
